Somebody to Love
Submission to the Executive Authority
Minister, it is with great pleasure that I submit the 2012 Annual Report on behalf of
Artscape, reflecting on its activities in accordance with the provisions of the Public Finance
Management Act, 1999 (Act No. 1 of 1999) (PFMA).
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The Artscape Council and Management remain
committed to the principles of good corporate
governance as prescribed by the King III
Report. The Artscape team strives to uphold the
highest standards of professionalism, integrity
and ethics. We are satisfied that the institution
has applied adequate corporate practices of
transparency, integrity and accountability for
the year.
The Council continued its risk management
oversight through the Audit and Risk Committee.
The Disaster Management Plan was tested by
means of a comprehensive fire drill at Artscape
and an evacuation drill at the Epping workshop.
The Human Resources Committee tirelessly
monitored employee-related policies and
practices. Over the past year the staff vacancy
rate was reduced by 2%. Artscape achieved
further progress with its set targets for staff
demographics. Three employees completed
the University of Stellenbosch Management
Development Programme, two of whom plan
to undergo further training. A total of 23 staff
members attended various external courses.
Council met four times during the review period
and implemented systems for internal control,
risk management, budgets and strategic plans
to maximise efficiencies in fulfilling its statutory
mandate. Urgent matters were dealt with by the
Executive Committee and ratified by full Council.

STATEMENT OF RESPONSIBILITY
The PFMA requires Artscape to keep full and
proper records of its financial affairs.
The financial statements for the year ended
31 March 2012 as set out on pages 28 to 42
were submitted for auditing on 31 May 2012.
Artscape, has, once again received an
unqualified audit report from the Auditor-General.
Sound management and good corporate
governance ensured optimal cost efficiency and
productivity, enabling Artscape to report a surplus
of R55 million for the 2011/12 financial year.
In view of its current sound financial position,
Council has every reason to believe that
Artscape will be a going concern in the year
ahead. It has thus continued to adopt the
‘going concern’ basis in preparing the financial
statements.
In the opinion of Council, the annual financial
statements fairly present the financial position
and financial performance of Artscape as at
31 March 2012, and the Code of Corporate
Practices and Conduct has been adhered to.
The new Council, which assumed its position on
1 August 2011, is grateful for the well-managed
entity that it inherited from the previous Council.
By building on this solid foundation, the new
Council was able to devise clear strategies on
how to steer this successful ship for further
growth and development to the advantage of the
entire country.
I would like to record my deep gratitude
and appreciation to all Council members,
management and staff for their continued
dedication and hard work to build Artscape into a
crown jewel of arts and culture in Africa.

CEO’S REPORT
As the oldest State-owned theatre complex in the country, the Artscape Theatre Centre
strives to remain at the forefront of responding to the challenges facing South Africa’s
blossoming democracy.
As such, it is constantly adapting its business
strategies to address the national imperatives to
build a robust economy, create job opportunities,
promote social cohesion and transfer skills for
sustainable growth, especially in the arts and
culture sector.
During 2011/12, Artscape presented 750
performances and events, employed 515 staff
and provided facilities and support for a further
816 jobs in the performing arts and culture
sector. Its total direct and indirect contribution to
the national Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is
estimated at about R541 million.
My management team and I wish to
express our warm appreciation to the
Artscape Council, the National Department
of Arts and Culture, the Western Cape Provincial
Government, our dedicated staff, and our
generous sponsors in helping Artscape achieve
its goal of becoming a leading performing arts
centre on the African continent.
Michael Maas
CEO
Over the past year, over 317 000 people visited
the theatre centre to attend a multitude of
events, such as stage productions, community
gatherings and other culturally enriching
activities.
As part of its ongoing skills transfer and training
programmes, five trainees took part in the
one-year University of Stellenbosch accredited
technical training programme. The students who
have graduated from the programme have all
managed to find full-time employment as theatre
practitioners across South Africa.
The wardrobe, which renders a specialised
service to stage productions, this year, took in
three interns and two trainees. Job shadowing
opportunities were also offered to several
learners and students. Four MBA students
from Belgium based their practical research on
Artscape.
Artscape also formed a cooperative agreement
with the Magnet Theatre of Cape Town and
established new cultural links with various
countries. Mike van Graan was appointed as
associate playwright, producing new South
African work that is performed to much acclaim.

Artistic and Operational Overview
Over the past year, Artscape’s space optimisation initiatives started to bear fruit. The increased
seating capacity in the Opera House provided economies of scale to the institution, as well as
to outside hirers. This helped the institution to fulfil its mandate of being a vehicle of economic
growth and social transformation through the arts.
An innovative product mix and skilled technical
staff helped to grow new audiences, and expose
historically neglected performing genres by
staging internationally acclaimed shows that
contributed towards revenue generation.
SPACE OPTIMISATION
SOCIAL COHESION
The universal language of the performing
arts offers an ideal vehicle to promote social
cohesion. The Artscape product mix represents
various genres that serve to bridge cultural
divides and age gaps.
During the year under review, Artscape
embarked on the biggest construction venture
since the official opening of the Theatre Centre
in 1971. These included the refurbishment
of the restaurant and dressing rooms, the
reconfiguration of existing areas to relocate
the manufacturing wardrobe from its satellite
location, as well as the upgrading of the
reception foyer at the stage door.
Over the past year the institution hosted
leading international stage shows such as The
Phantom of the Opera and The Nutcracker on
Ice. In addition, it also staged performances
that reflected the diverse arts and cultural mix
of the Western Cape and South Africa as a
whole. These range from indigenous music
to crossover productions where classical and
emerging arts were showcased.
Successful building works included two new
floors of office and rehearsal room space on the
roof of the theatre wing. The additional space
will be used to accommodate the Audience
Development and Education and Indigenous
Arts departments, the Jazzart Theatre
Dance Company, the Siyasanga Cape Town
Theatre Company, the Artscape New Writing
Programme, as well as additional rehearsal
rooms.
SKILLS DEVELOPMENT
RURAL OUTREACH
Artscape continued its endeavours to take
theatre to the people by staging a fully-fledged
production in a rural area. These outreach
programmes create opportunities for nation
building by bringing the pride of the performing
arts to communities who would otherwise
never have access to live theatre. During
the past year, about 1 800 residents of the
Theewaterskloof region attended an 80-minute
production of Kunstetreffers. Complementing the
show, were various workshops which provided
career guidance and skills transfer opportunities
to some 660 learners from 11 local schools.
Five trainees completed the one-year technical
training course that is accredited by the
University of Stellenbosch. These trainees
earned a SAQA-accredited qualification,
equalling a NQF level 6 qualification. Other
initiatives to stimulate development and skills
transfer include the City of Cape Town Acting
Competition, the Artscape National Youth Music
Competition, the annual youth jazz and classical
music festivals, the High School Drama Festival
and the annual Schools Arts Festival during
which 92 schools from all over the Province
participated in a two-week kaleidoscope of
performing arts.
The synergy of these programmes contributes
to job creation and helps nurtures a love for the
performing arts.

Artscape offers a training programme in stage technology, including lighting, sound and stage
management.
The internship programme provides training and skills transfer in arts administration and management

Artscape’s main source of funding consists of the transfers from the Department of Arts & Culture. The funding
from government grants account for 85% of the total income, due to the additional capital funding received in the
current year.
Additional revenue is generated through rental income, box office takings and sponsorship from local donors and
business enterprises.
Except for the additional spending on the current building works, no major changes to current spending areas are
expected.

Overview of Financial Statements
FOR THE YEAR ENDING 31 MARCH 2012
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Total revenue increased by 30% from R99.521m to R129.504m.
✦ The annual grant from the Department of Arts & Culture (DAC) increased by 6%, from R39.787m to R42.332m.
✦ Additional grants for capital maintenance were received from DAC and the Provincial Government of the Western Cape
(PGWC). R34.182m of DAC funding was released to revenue in the current year. The PGWC grant deferred in the previous
year was fully released to revenue. In total an amount of R33.057m of the PGWC grant received over the last 2 years was
released to revenue.
✦ Other operating revenue increased by 33% from R13.603m to R18.078m. This increase is primarily due to revenue from
venue rentals (up by 21% to R4.794m), revenue from cafeteria, restaurant and bars (up by 262% to R4.727m), production
revenue (up by 13% to R2.812m) and sponsorship revenue (up by 7% to R3.418m). The increase in sponsorship includes
the first tranche of the R5m grant from the National Lotteries Board. Other revenue is not materially different to that of the
previous year.
✦ Interest received increased by 71% from R1.086m to R1.885m due to the increase in total revenue and efficient
management of cash resources.

OPERATING SURPLUS
An operating surplus of R55.268m (2011: R35.937m) was achieved for this financial year. The operating surplus resulted from
the government grant for capital works being utilised to improve the value of the leased property.
PROVISION FOR POST-RETIREMENT MEDICAL BENEFIT
The actuarial valuation, as well as current contributions paid, resulted in an additional expense of R269 000 being incurred for
the post-retirement medical benefit.
SURPLUS
An accounting surplus of R54.999m (2011: R33.012m) was recorded for the year ended 31 March 2012.
FINANCIAL POSITION
The increase in non-current assets is due to the improvements on leased property (roof extensions and other space
optimisation projects and upgrades) and other minor increases in other non-current assets.

The increase in non-cash current assets is due to the decrease in receivables and the increase in cash resources, due to the
government grants unutilised at year-end.
Non-current liabilities did not change materially from the previous year.
Current liabilities (other) increased primarily due to the liability for building works raised at the end of the financial year. In line
with the utilisation of the funding for capital works, the deferred government grant dropped to R16.211m.
Cash and cash equivalents dropped from R42.353m to R23.068m due to the utilisation of the government grant deferred from
the previous year. The remainder of the grant will be fully utilised during 2012/2013 as part of the completion of the tender for
the space optimisation projects awarded on 1 April 2011.
THE FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND FINANCIAL POSITION AS AT 31 MARCH 2012 INDICATE A FIRM
CONTROL OVER INCOME AND EXPENDITURE AND A SOUND MANAGEMENT OF CASH RESOURCES.

Audit and Risk Committee Responsibility
The Audit and Risk Committee reports that it has complied with its responsibilities arising from section 51(1)(a) of the PFMA
and Treasury Regulation 27.1.10. The Committee also reports that it has adopted appropriate formal terms of reference as its
charter; regulated its affairs in compliance with this charter; and discharged all its responsibilities as contained therein.
Risk management
The Audit and Risk Committee reviewed the outcomes of the risk management workshop and ensured that risks are
continuously monitored and that the risk register is updated regularly.
Effectiveness of internal control
The system of internal control is considered effective as the various reports of the Internal Auditors and the Auditor-General
have not reported any significant or material non-compliance with prescribed policies and procedures and laws and regulations,
other than the non-compliance with Treasury Regulation 16A6.1., whereby the required number of price quotations for goods
and services with a transaction value below R500 000 were not obtained.
The other matters identified in the management letter of the Auditor-General will be monitored by the Audit and Risk Committee
and the Internal Auditors in the following year.
Quality of quarterly reports
The Committee is satisfied with the content and quality of quarterly reports prepared and issued by the Institution during the
year under review.
Evaluation of Financial Statements and Predetermined Objectives
The Audit Committee has:
● Reviewed the audited annual financial statements to be included in the annual report;
● Reviewed the report on predetermined objectives to be included in the annual report;
● Reviewed the Auditor-General’s management letter and management’s response; and
● Reviewed the report of the Auditor-General for the year ended 31 March 2012.
The Audit Committee concurs and accepts the conclusions of the Auditor-General on the annual financial statements and is of
the opinion that the audited annual financial statements be accepted and read together with the report of the Auditor-General.

REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Introduction
1.
I have audited the financial statements of Artscape set out on pages 28 to 42, which comprise the statement of financial
position as at 31 March 2012, the statement of financial performance, statement of changes in net assets and the cash
flow statement for the year then ended, and the notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and
other explanatory information.
Accounting authority’s r esponsibility for the financial statements
2.
The accounting authority is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in
accordance with South African Standards of Generally Recognised Accounting Practice (SA Standards of GRAP) and
the requirements of the Public Finance Management Act of South Africa, 1999 (Act No.1 of 1999)(PFMA), and for such
internal control as the accounting authority determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements
that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor-General’s responsibility
3.
My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audit in
accordance with the Public Audit Act of South Africa, 2004 (Act No. 25 of 2004) (PAA), the General Notice issued in
terms thereof and International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that I comply with ethical requirements
and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from
material misstatement.
4.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the
auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements
in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the financial statements.
5.
I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my audit opinion.
Opinion
6.
In my opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Artscape as at
31 March 2012, and its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with SA Standards
of GRAP and the requirements of the PFMA.
Emphasis of matter
7.
I draw attention to the matter below. My opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Restatement of corresponding figures
8.
As disclosed in note 26 to the financial statements, the corresponding figures for 31 March 2011 have been restated
as a result of errors discovered during 31 March 2012 in the financial statements of Artscape and for the year ended,
31 March 2011.
REPORT ON OTHER LEGAL AND REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS
9.
In accordance with the PAA and the General Notice issued in terms thereof, I report the following findings relevant to
performance against predetermined objectives, compliance with laws and regulations and internal control, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion.
Predetermined objectives
10. I performed procedures to obtain evidence about the usefulness and reliability of the information in the annual
performance report as set out on pages 11 to 18 of the annual report.
24
Sour Angelica
La Traviata
Amaza
Tianjin Acrobat Company
11. The reported performance against predetermined objectives was evaluated against the overall criteria of usefulness
and reliability. The usefulness of information in the annual performance report relates to whether it is presented in
accordance with the National Treasury annual reporting principles and whether the reported performance is consistent
with the planned objectives. The usefulness of information further relates to whether indicators and targets are
measurable (i.e. well defined, verifiable, specific, measurable and time bound) and relevant as required by the National
Treasury Framework for managing programme performance information.
12. The reliability of the information in respect of the selected programmes is assessed to determine whether it adequately
reflects the facts (i.e. whether it is valid, accurate and complete).
13. There were no material findings on the annual performance report concerning the usefulness and reliability of the
information.
Compliance with laws and regulations
14. I performed procedures to obtain evidence that the entity has complied with applicable laws and regulations regarding
financial matters, financial management and other related matters. My findings on material non-compliance with specific
matters in key applicable laws and regulations as set out in the General Notice issued in terms of the PAA are as follows:
Annual financial statements, performance and annual reports
15. The financial statements submitted for auditing were not prepared in all material respects in accordance with the
requirements of section 55(1)(b) of the PFMA. Material disclosure misstatements identified by the auditors were
subsequently corrected, resulting in the financial statements receiving an unqualified audit opinion.
Procurement and contract management
16. Goods and services with a transaction value below R500 000 were procured without obtaining the required price
quotations, as required by Treasury Regulation 16A6.1.
Expenditure management
17. The accounting authority did not take effective and appropriate steps to prevent irregular expenditure, as per the
requirements of section 51(1)(b) of the PFMA.
Internal control
18. I considered internal control relevant to my audit of the financial statements, performance report and compliance with
laws and regulations. The matters reported below under the fundamentals of internal control are limited to the significant
deficiencies that resulted in the findings on compliance with laws and regulations included in this report.
Financial and Performance Management
19. The financial statements were not adequately reviewed for accuracy and completeness of disclosures prior to
submission for audit, resulting in material misstatements that were corrected by management.
20. Inadequate processes are in place to review and monitor compliance with applicable laws and regulations which has
resulted in irregular expenditure that was not prevented or detected by management.

Statement of Responsibility
The Public Finance Management Act, 1999 (Act No. 1 of 1999) requires the Accounting Authority
to ensure that Artscape keeps full and proper records of its financial affairs. The annual financial
statements should fairly present the state of affairs of Artscape, its financial results, its performance
against predetermined objectives and its financial position at year end.
The Annual Financial Statements are the responsibility of the Accounting Authority. The AuditorGeneral is responsible for independently auditing and reporting on the financial statements.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the South African Standards of
Generally Recognised Accounting Practices (GRAP) issued by the Accounting Standards Board. The
annual financial statements are based on appropriate accounting policies, supported by reasonable
and prudent judgements and estimates.
The Accounting Authority is responsible for the Institution’s internal controls and risk management.
These controls are designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute assurance as to the reliability of
the financial statements, and to adequately safeguard, verify and maintain accountability for assets
and to prevent and detect material misstatements and loss. Nothing has come to the attention of
the Accounting Authority to indicate any material breakdown in the functioning of these controls,
procedures and systems during the year under review.
In view of our current financial position, the Accounting Authority has every reason to believe that
Artscape will be a going concern in the year ahead and has continued to adopt the going concern
basis in preparing the financial statements.
SUBMISSION OF ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The annual financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2012, set out on pages 28 to 42, were
submitted for auditing on 31 May 2012 in terms of Section 51(1)(f) of the Public Finance Management
Act, 1999 (Act No. 1 of 1999).

1.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following are the principle accounting policies of Artscape, which are consistent, in all material respects, with those applied in previous years.
1.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION

Mergers
In order to comply with the requirements of GRAP 3, budget information has been prepared based on the principles of GRAP 24, without
adopting the standard.
Changes in accounting policies are only effected if a standard of GRAP requires a change, or if it results in the financial statements
providing reliable and more relevant information about the impact of the effects of transactions, other events or conditions on the financial
position, financial performance or cash flow. Changes in accounting policies are applied either retrospectively or prospectively.
Estimates
In the preparation of the financial statements, estimates are only made based on reliable available information that does not undermine the
reliability of financial statements. The effect of accounting changes is recognised prospectively, by including them in surplus or deficit in the
period of the change, if the change effects that period only, or in the period of the change and future periods, if the change affects both.
Errors
Prior period errors are errors or omissions from and misstatements in the financial statements for one or more prior periods arising from
a failure to use, or the misuse of reliable information. Such errors include the effects of mathematical mistakes, mistakes in applying
accounting policies, oversights or misinterpretations of facts and fraud. Errors need not be corrected retrospectively if it is impractical to
determine either the period-specific or cumulative effect of the error.
30
1.2 PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Land and buildings are registered in the name of the Provincial Government of the Western Cape (PGWC) and are made available to
Artscape on a permanent basis. Land and buildings not belonging to Artscape are not recognised as property, plant and equipment.
Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Improvements to the property belonging to PGWC
is capitalised and are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Work in progress on improvements to leased property are capitalised
and are stated at cost and transferred to improvements to leased property upon completion. Vehicles, equipment, music instruments,
furniture and fittings and computers are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives to their residual value.
The useful life of an item of property, plant and equipment is the period over which the assets are expected to be available for use by
Artscape. The residual value is the estimated amount that Artscape would obtain from the disposal of the asset, after deducting the
estimated costs of disposal, if the asset was already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life.
Assets held under finance leases are depreciated over their expected useful lives on the same basis as owned assets, or over the term of
the lease, where the lease period is shorter (as listed in note 1.5.1 below).
Surpluses and losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment are credited or charged to the statement of financial performance and
is recognised as a profit or loss on disposal.
Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method, to write off the cost of each asset to estimated residual values over its estimated
useful life as follows:
Improvement to leasehold property
:
10 – 25 years
Motor vehicles
:
4 – 5 years
Cellular phones
:
2 years
Equipment
:
5 years
Musical instruments, furniture and fittings
:
10 years
Computer equipment
:
3 years
Artworks are not depreciated as their current residual value is expected to be greater than their carrying amount. Work in progress
is not depreciated and is transferred to improvement to leasehold property upon completion.
ANNUAL REASSESSMENT OF USEFUL LIFE
The useful life of an item of property, plant and equipment is the period over which the asset is expected to be available for use by Artscape.
The useful life of assets is reassessed on an annual basis to ensure that the estimated useful lives are still appropriate.
Where a change in the estimated useful life is identified, the change is accounted for as a change in accounting estimate on a
prospective basis. In other words, the remaining value is written off on a straight-line basis over the remaining newly assessed useful life.
RESIDUAL VALUES
Residual values are reviewed each year and, where estimates differ from those previously determined, the difference is accounted for as
a change in accounting estimates on a prospective basis.
IMPAIRMENT
At each balance sheet date, Artscape reviews the carrying amounts of its property, plant and equipment to determine whether there is
any indication that those assets may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order
to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any.
If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its
recoverable amount. Impairment losses are immediately recognised as an expense, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued
amount under another Standard, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease under that other Standard.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable
amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no
impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years.
A reversal of an impairment loss is immediately recognised as revenue, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in
which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash
flows are discounted to their present value that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to
the asset.
Where the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is written down to its
recoverable amount through the statement of financial performance by way of a provision for impairment of carrying value.
1.3 INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets, being identifiable non-monetary assets without physical substance, are accounted for in terms of the cost model, at
cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Intangible assets comprise of computer software and have been assessed as having a useful life of 3 years with the depreciation charge
thereon recognised on a straight line basis.
The residual value of an intangible asset is assumed to be zero as there is no expectation of disposing of it before the end of its
economic life.
1.4 INVENTORY
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost, determined on the first-in first-out basis, and net realisable value (the estimated selling price in
the ordinary course of business, less the costs necessary to make the sale).
1.5 LEASES
1.5.1 Financial Leases
Leases are classified as finance leases where substantially all the risks and rewards associated with ownership of an asset are
transferred to Artscape. Assets subject to finance lease agreements are capitalised at their cash cost equivalent and the corresponding
liabilities are raised. The cost of the assets is depreciated at appropriate rates on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives
of the assets. Lease payments are allocated between the lease finance cost and the capital repayment using the effective interest rate
method. Lease finance costs are expensed when incurred.
1.5.2 Operating Leases
Operating leases are those leases which do not fall within the scope of the above definition. Payments made under operating leases are
charged to the statement of financial performance on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.
31
1.6 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial instruments recognised on the statement of financial position, include cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, and
trade and other payables. Management determines the classification of its financial assets and financial liabilities at initial recognition. The
classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired.
1.6.1 Trade and other receivables
Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method, less any provision for doubtful debts. Trade and other receivables are assessed individually for impairment in terms of recoverability.
1.6.2 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and at bank, as well as deposits held on call with banks and are stated at cost. Interest on
cash in bank and call accounts are accrued on a monthly basis and disclosed as interest received in the statement of financial performance.
1.6.3 Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables comprise trade payables, accruals and amounts owed to third parties in relation to employee costs. Trade and
other payables are categorised as a financial instrument under current liabilities and recognised initially at fair value and subsequently
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, where applicable.
1.7 PROVISIONS
Provisions are recognised where the Institution has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event; a reliable estimate
of the obligation can be made and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the
obligation.
1.8 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
From 1 January 1997, employees could elect to join either the existing pension fund, a defined benefit fund, or the newly formed Provident
Fund for the Performing Arts Institutions, a defined contribution fund.
DEFINED BENEFIT PLANS
The Institution continued to contribute to the Performing Arts Institutions Pension Fund, a defined benefit plan, until 30 September 2009. This
fund is registered under and governed by the Pension Funds Act, 1956 as amended. The Pension Fund of the Performing Arts Institutions
qualifies as a multi-employer plan as defined by IAS 19. The assets of the funds are pooled. Insufficient information is available to determine
Artscape’s proportionate share of the planned assets and employment benefit costs of the defined benefit plan. Hence, the plan has been
accounted for as if it were a defined contribution plan. Contributions payable to the fund are recognised as an expense in the year to which
they relate.
DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLANS
Contributions in respect of defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the year to which they relate. Multi-employer funds, as
defined by IAS19 Employee Benefits, where the enterprise is unable to determine its proportionate share of the fund’s obligation and assets
are treated as defined contribution plans.
POST-RETIREMENT MEDICAL BENEFITS
With effect from 31 March 2000 the Institution changed its accounting policy relating to post-retirement medical benefit costs. Provision is
made for post-retirement benefits in the form of medical aid benefits for certain employees who were pensioned prior to 1997. The total cost
is assessed in accordance with the advice of qualified and independent actuaries. The amount accrued for post-retirement medical benefits
are included as provisions.
The cost of providing benefits under this plan is determined using the projected unit credit actuarial valuation method. The current service
in respect of the defined benefit plan is recognised as an expense in the current period. Past service costs and actuarial gains and losses
relating to the above-mentioned retired employees are charged to the statement of financial performance in full in the current period.
1.9 REVENUE
Revenue includes the following:
1.9.1 Turnover
Turnover comprises the total grants received from government departments (recognised as per note 1.10), as well as venue rental revenue,
marketing and publicity services, costume manufacturing and hiring of costumes and other décor and sponsorship received.
Sponsorship received is recognised as revenue, on a systematic basis, over the period necessary to match them with the related costs,
which they are intended to compensate.
1.9.2 Interest
Interest is recognised at the effective yield on a time proportion basis over the period held.
1.10 GOVERNMENT GRANTS
The principles of GRAP 23 (revenue from non-exchange transactions) were applied. The principles of this standard require that the
government grant is recognised on the day the institution is satisfied that the conditions of the grant have been complied with.
Government grants that carry a condition that, if it is not used it must be repaid, are deferred as revenue until such time as it is utilised or
becomes repayable. Deferred government grants will only be released to revenue once the conditions of the grant have been complied with.
1.11 IRREGULAR AND FRUITLESS AND WASTEFUL EXPENDITURE
Irregular expenditure means expenditure incurred in contravention of, or not in accordance with a requirement of any applicable legislation,
including the PFMA.
Fruitless and wasteful expenditure means expenditure that was made in vain and would have been avoided had reasonable care been exercised.
32
All irregular and fruitless and wasteful expenditure is charged against income in the period in which they were incurred.
1.12 COMPARATIVE FIGURES
Comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in the presentation of the current year, where necessary.

20. RETIREMENT BENEFIT INFORMATION
20.1 PROVIDENT FUND CURRENT YEAR CONTRIBUTIONS
The defined contribution Provident Fund, which covers 98 employees (2011: 89) at year-end, employer and employee contributions in the
current year amounted to R4 031 685 (2011: R3 431 668).
20.2 POST-RETIREMENT MEDICAL BENEFIT
Artscape operates a post-retirement benefit scheme for eligible retired employees. The liability raised in note 7 above is in respect of the 7
(2011: 7) qualifying employees. The cost of this is recognised, as determined by independent actuaries, over the estimated service lives of
the employees concerned. The most recent valuation of this liability was 31 March 2012.
Trend Information
The trend information as required by IAS 19 for the previous 5 years, determined by the independent actuaries is:

In respect of Fair Value of Plan Assets
Valuation method and main assumptions
The actuarial valuation method used by the actuaries to value the liabilities is the Projected Unit Credit Method prescribed by IAS19. Future
benefits valued are projected using specific actuarial assumptions and the liability for in-service members is accrued over expected working
lifetime. Any plan assets are valued at current market value as required by IAS19. In order to undertake the valuation, it is necessary to make
a number of assumptions.
The most significant assumptions used for the current and previous valuations were a discount rate of 8.25% (2011: 9.25%) and medical cost
inflation of 7.50% (2011: 8%).
Sensitivity Results
The results of the valuation are extremely sensitive to the assumptions used.
The valuation results set out above are based on a number of assumptions. The value of the liability could turn out to be overstated or
understated, depending on the extent to which actual experience differs from the assumptions adopted. The liability was recalculated to show
the effect of:
• A one percentage point decrease or increase in the rate of health care cost inflation;
• A five or ten percentage point increase in the rate of health care cost inflation for the next five years, thereafter returning to a health care
cost inflation of 7.50% p.a.;
• A one percentage point decrease or increase in the discount rate.

21. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial instruments carried on the statement of financial position are classified as financial assets and as financial liabilities in terms of IAS39
and consist of receivables and prepayments, cash and cash equivalents and trade and other payables.
21.1 FAIR VALUES
At 31 March 2012 and 31 March 2011 the carrying values of financial instruments reported in the financial statements approximate their fair
value.
21.2 MARKET RISK
Interest rate
Artscape deposits short-term cash surpluses with a major bank of a high quality credit standing and therefore has low interest rate exposure
on its bank accounts. These deposits attract interest at rates linked directly to the prime overdraft rate.
Currency and other price risk
Artscape is not exposed to any of the above named risks.
21.3 CREDIT RISK
Cash and cash equivalents
Credit risk is mitigated by the fact that Artscape only deposits cash surpluses with major banks of high credit standing. The maximum
exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the bank balances as disclosed in the Cash Flow Statement. The table below shows the credit
rating and balances of the banks used by Artscape.

Accounts and other receivables
Credit risk is mitigated through management’s assessment of the credit quality of debtors, taking into account their financial position,
payment history, their production track record and the perceived perception of the quality of the production prior to it being staged. Each
production is assessed individually and the agreement is negotiated and assessed in consultation with the respective producer or promoter.
Without classifying debtors differently, the assessment is done to ensure a fair practice and an equitable agreement for all users of the same
space whilst ensuring the presentation of excellent and varied products, meeting audience expectations and public demand. No collateral is
held for any debtor.
The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the fair value of trade and other receivables as disclosed in note 4. Five
debtors that constitute 88% of the trade receivables balance have a favourable payment history. The recoverability of amounts due by the
professional arts companies associated with Artscape is dependent on the continued public and private funding for these arts companies
which is needed to continue their operations. Management is of the opinion that these debts are fully recoverable.
21.4 LIQUIDITY RISK
Artscape manages liquidity risk by monitoring its cash flow requirements. Council is of the opinion that the net carrying value of the liabilities
approximate their fair value and that Artscape has sufficient resources to settle its short term liabilities.
The table below analyses Artscape’s financial liabilities into maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the reporting date to the
contractual maturity date.

The deferred government grant revenue is not a financial liability as it is similar to revenue received in advance, and has been excluded from
the maturity analysis. It will only become a financial liability if it becomes re-payable.

Expenditure incurred without applying the preference point system to all procurement
of goods and services above R30 000 as required by section 2(a) of the Preferential
Procurement Policy Framework Act, 2000 (Act No.5 of 2000).
Expenditure incurred without obtaining at least three written quotations for expenses
between R10 000 and R500 000 as required by Practice Note 8 of 2007/2008
24. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Section 53(3) of the Public Finance Management Act, 1999 (Act No. 1 of 1999) indicates that a public entity may not budget for a deficit and
may not accumulate surpluses unless the prior written approval of the National Treasury has been obtained.
Artscape requested approval from the executive authority (DAC) to retain the accumulated surplus as at 31 March 2012, but to date the
approval has not been obtained. Based on approval obtained in prior years, management is of the opinion that National Treasury will grant
such approval. Should approval not be obtained, a liability for the accumulated surplus of R54 998 827 may exist.
